My laptop crashed a few days ago and somehow my backup copy also failed to work. Maybe my old but trustworthy Dell is warning me about Mr. Market’s change of mood. Anyway, I have not traded any stocks lately as I am waiting for Mr. Market to indicate a clearer trend before entering any position.

The recent debt and economy crisis of PIIGS (Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Germany, Spain) have turned the world indices into bearish mode like the Volcanic ashes casting shadows over Europe. This ash cloud reminds me of the Dark Cloud Cover in Candlestick patterns lol

I did a Forex trade on EURUSD last Monday and another on the same pair on Tuesday. Both results are positive and I do hope this will be a good month for me in Forex. Cheers!
